The sound comes from a Hungarian mentőautó, an ambulance operated in Hungary where emergency vehicles use a distinctive alternating two tone siren unlike the American wail. Short clips like this one circulated on soundboards and video edits because the effect is instantly understood across languages, no translation needed. Creators reuse it for skits, gaming highlights and reaction memes whenever a scene needs an instant rescue cue, and its very short length makes it easy to loop or layer over repeated gags without overwhelming the original audio.
